My sausage doesn't respond to magnetic north so both ends are equal

Slightly higer salt content.

This is an intriguing question.
I think it depends on whether the skin splits during cooking and the centre bit oozes out and has little crispy bits on it.
If this happens the square at the centre is twice as tasty as the sum of the squares at the two ends.

Vegetarian sausages are uncoventionaly east to west so I wouldn`t know.

I have just bought a French sausage in Dieppe market. It tasted far better in France than when I got it back to Brighton.

It's a bit like Ouzo only tasting good in Greece.

North and South just seems to depend on which way you are standing.

It's the attitude you eat it with, and the time taken to eat it. It'll always taste best where you are happiest and the sausage is the freshest.
